I absolutely love this little Italian restaurant in the heart of Dublin City. I was in the city for 4 days and dined here twice for dinner. It's probably 1 of a few truly Italian joints in this city that serves excellent food with just as good wine to boost. The prices were relatively inexpensive for the quality of the meal which is the best part. The atmosphere & decor is casual comfort yet classy. The service was very good even though it was super busy both nights we were there. I really can't stop raving about this joint. read more

A classic Italian place where you can enjoy the same flavours and a decent variety of wines. Went for the Raviolis al brasato, a bottle of barbera d'alba and tiramisú for dessert. It was one of the best dinners I've had in Dublin. read more

Popped in here this evening for a lateish lunch on our way elsewhere, and was really quite pleasantly surprised. It was second choice as Lemon Jelly was packed out the door, but Enoteca, or Wallace's Langhe as it's now known, was perfect for us. Delicious fresh sourdough served with green & red pesto, hummus and pate for dips to start- yum. Followed by chicken & porcini ravioli which was simple and really light! My other half had carpaccio which was a huge portion for €9 and really really tasty! All of this was accompanied by more of their moreish(for want of a better word) bread.. Would have loved to have time for a coffee (their coffee cups are adorable!) or a glass of one of many wines on display but will definitely next time. Really lovely little spot to while away an evening for all sorts- couples, solo & curled up with a book, or with friends! Also 25% off for takeaway on regular wine bottles prices..! read more

Enoteca Delle Langhe - Beautiful winebar area! - Italian Near Me - Dublin, D

I swear I'm Italian. Apart from the obvious truth that I am, without a doubt, NOT Italian, everything else in my life points to the fact that I am. Excessively dramatic and emotional, I get passionately angry about the smallest thing, and incredibly upset (insert wailing and tears here) about a mere trifle. I fall in love quickly, I like to throw things when I'm angry, and I like to gossip about everyone and everything. I love food and wine, and my idea of a brilliant evening is a bottle of red, a platter of cheese, bread and assorted antipasti, a close friend or two and some tipsily-shared secrets. Ok, so I must apologise to all Italians out there. That was such a cliche, and I know you're not all that one-dimensional. Please let me point out that I WORSHIP these character traits in a human being, and I believe the world would be a much better place if everyone lived with this much passion. Anyway, believe it or not, this is actually a review of Enoteca Delle Langhe in Dublin's Italian Quarter. Phew! Beautiful place, somewhere I could (and did) spend an entire evening, sipping away at a lovely red and chatting with friends. The assortment of platters is amazing, and really, you can't order wine without a platter, or vice-versa. Enoteca is warmly lit and inviting, and the wine bottle-covered walls make for a cosy backdrop. The waiters are lovely (and very Italian looking) and they don't ever seem to try to rush you along. This restaurant comes with my highest recommendation for a night out with your girlfriends, or for an evening out with your lover. read more

Real traditional Italian restaurant. I'm a complete fan of Italian food and I must say that this place is amazing. Really amazing. It's not fancy at all. You don't go there for a big romantic night. The ambiance and atmosphere remind me of the small familial restaurant you can find all over Italy. The food is just WOW! They have really authentic product, really authentic foods. There's nothing I didn't like. We ordered a meat platter and a cheese platter to share. We were 4 and the portions were really generous. Everything was extremely amazing. You could really taste that the products weren't industrial. If you're looking for a place that reminds you of home (if you're Italian) or your holidays in Italy. Just go there!! read more

Great place to have a bottle of wine with some cheese and meat platters. They import the wine, cheese and meats from Italy and the owner has a vineyard there. The staff are extremely friendly and most appear to be Italian. The food is very reasonably priced. Two thumbs up :-) read more

Enoteca Delle Langhe - "Misto" - bruschette's tagliere - Italian Near Me - Dublin, D

This is one of three Wallace restaurants in the little 'Italian Quarter'. Usually, I head straight to Wallace's Taverna, but because the weather was nice, myself and my buddy decided to sit in the little outdoor seating space on front of Enoteca Delle Langhe. It was a tight squeeze sitting down and eventually we had to go up and order as we' weren't being served. After another looooong wait, we finally got our salads and a glass of wine. I'd recommend avoiding the house white - it wasn't the may west and looked suspiciously like pee. :-O We had asked for the dressing on the side; however, when the grub arrived, it was clear the server hadn't understood. She brought extra olive oil and our salads were drenched. My meal promised me olives, goats cheese and sundriend tomato, but what I got was a plate of leaves, 4 olives, one tiny tomato and microscopic amounts of cheese. My buddy's dish was equally void of ingredients, so it was handy we had so much of the aforementioned dressing, as at least it provided us with some form of sustenance - well, that and the sourdough bread, which was heavenly. From my oogling of other people's food, I deduce that we, as an attempt to be heathy, made bad choices. Any menu items with a headline act of meat, bread or cheese looked much more substantial. Nevertheless I'm still going to go back to the Taverna in future. read more

Very nice and cozy Italian place, pretty darn authentic taste for anything you can find outside Italy. Definitely try the Bresaola which comes with goat cheese mousse!! read more

The wine and tapas were fine. The waitress left much to be desired. My wife and I stopped in one afternoon for a glass of white wine each and to split a small plate. We received generous pours at a fair price and quite liked our tapas, which was toasted baguette with a very flavorful pesto topping. We really liked it. What we didn't much care for was the waitress. She was rather, well, not all too pleasant. She didn't seem too enthused to be at work and it came across in her dismissive demeanor. It's too bad, too, because we liked the place otherwise. read more

This is a gem in the Temple bar area. The atmosphere was cute and fun and the food was spectacular! The portions are smaller but its for the best because we didnt leave feeling miserable. We actually left with reservations for the next night too. read more

I just realized this is NOT the same restaurant as La Taverna. My bad! Aside from the food & wine, which I loved, I remember the chair stumps being too high for the tables and nowhere to put my coat. Here is my original review: Bottle of wine? €18 Small meat & cheese tray? €8 Large vegetarian bruschetta tray? €8. Dinner for two and getting half-sloshed without going broke? Priceless. read more

I hadn't been there in a while and just thought about it after an early movie at the IFI. I really loved going back there and it felt like I was visiting an old friend, drinking familiar wine (I had lived in that particular region of Italy for 2 years!) and eating good food. I should really go back for more. My only criticism would be that they get more staff. The wait staff do seem to be a bit overwhelmed with customers. read more

Many Dubliners acclaim Enoteca to be the most romantic wine-bar in town, offering a vast list of fine wines in a soft-lit and casual setting. I have to agree, and for a first date, it hits the spot. It's a bit hidden from the regular pub-crawl route, so you are less likely tol run into a group of your friends, which can lead to some awkward silences. They have very good finger-food as well so say farewell to forks and share a cheese-plate and a bottle of fine Italian red with your date. If you screw it up, you can't at least blame Enoteca. read more

I think Im reviewing the right place, however, on the receipt it says 'Wallace Tavern'. Anyway, its the first restaurant on the left hand side as you enter the Italian quarter, coming from the bridge. I popped in here yesterday (Sunday) as I wanted to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. I started with a coffee, which was not great-not smooth, tasted gritty and overly strong. yeuch. The food looked nice and I was hungry so I requested a menu and was delighted that at 4.30pm the lunch special (any pizza or pasta plus a glass of wine for a tenner) was still on. As I was feeling delicate I opted for the spag bol & white wine. The wine was delicous, nice and cold, and not overly acidic or cheap-tasting. My pasta was al dente, the ragu authentic, with evidence of white wine, possibly pork mince and lovely fresh parsley. The server also brought me a basket of fresh crusty bread and parmesan. It was all very tasty, fresh and nice to eat. Really good value and quality-shame about the coffee. Ill be back to try more. read more

I used to come here all the time and I thought their lunch deal was great. However my experience yesterday has drastically changed my opinion. We walked in and were greeted with an overpowering, disgusting smell. Had we not been in such a rush we would have walked out. I ordered taglioni con gamberi (pasta with prawns) and while it was presented very well I knew immediately when I tasted the prawns that they were not in the least bit fresh. My brother and father's meals were equally disappointing. On top of that the waiter was extremely disinterested and kept trying to walk away from our table before we had finished ordering coffees. I am usually slow to write poor reviews for places I have had pleasant experiences in the past but after yesterday this is no way I will be returning here. It really can't compete with Caffe Italiano in Temple Bar. read more

Unfortunately I've never seen much of Italy, only Venice which is a very touristy place nowadays, but every time I'm here, I spend half of my time dreaming about moving to Italy. If I had the option, I would eat here every day, breakfast, lunch and dinner until I was too fat to leave. Absolutely love the place! Staff are Italian, down to earth and polite. I love the open kitchen and listening to them chattering. We ordered two Capuccinos, Rocchetta D'Abbraccio, Ai pomodoro (now that's what I call bread, not that rubbery crap you buy at stores!), Tagliere Toscano and Spaghettoni Aglio Olio. The waiter automatically assumed we'd share all this and it wasn't a problem at all. Lovely food. You get them on wooden platters and portions generously fill two grown up stomachs. ;) When they checked if everything was ok, I told the waiter he made us very happy, because they really did. read more

To be honest, I don't know why I keep coming back here. Could it be it's just a 5 minute walk from where I live? Or is it the nice little (heated) terrace - perfect for people watching? I can't think of any other reason really... I have yet to try a really nice wine here, the food is allright, but nothing I couldn't make better myself, staff is really hit and miss (usually end up waiting a long time). Having said that, it's not so bad I would avoid it altogether, and it's just a nice convenient spot to have a catch up with a friend over an (A-OK) glass of wine. read more

Great restaurant! Outdoor seating in pleasant weather is highly desirable but ample. It's VERY hard to find but everso worth it. The menu is small and simple and more designed for those looking to grab a salad for dinner or smaller dishes to accompany their wine which is EXTENSIVE!!!! Literally, at least ten pages worth of options. From my experience, it seemed like the restaurant was a little overwhelmed staffing wise. I waitress ran around like a chicken with it's head cut off and barely got our orders in and food out. And, after waiting a while for the check, I finally had to go inside and ask for it. But, for the quality of the food, it was worth it. Our table ordered three salads, a vegetarian entree, a crostini sampler, the special (Speghetti alla bolgonese, which was a tough decision against another special of farfalle with sundried tomato pesto.), three classes of wine (They only carry wine and Italian beer), and a soda, all for under 65€. I highly recommend this for a couple or small group, looking for a nice evening out and a light dinner with some wine. read more

The name Enoteca Delle Langhe literally means wine library from the Italian region Langhe. And that's what this bar is in a nutshell. The place is arranged to allow people to get up and close to the wines stacked on the walls in wood cub holes. Apparently over 75% of their selection comes from the district of Langhe which is famous for its grapes. In total, the bar has around 200 different Italian wines. Situated in North-west Italy, Langhe is also known for its distinctive cuisine. The restaurant in the Italian quarter serves food that enhances the flavour of the wine. I ordered a glass of white and a plate of mixed cheese and meats. It was delicious and worth every penny. read more

What I love about this place is the snug atmosphere, authentic food and extensive wine list which is for take-away as well as for sale in the restaurant. The wine starts at around five euros a glass, which is hard to find in the city. The prices on the shelves are discounted for take away. If you're stuck, ask one of the Italian waiters. The food is generous and well presented, with the selection focusing around antipasto - Italian style tapas. My favourites are the crostini selection which includes rocket pesto and olive oil aubergine, and the meat and cheese plates. Although there is seating outside, the best place to visit is when it's pouring with rain outside and the world is looking a tad miserable. It's always glowing in here. read more

I must say, I really enjoy this place. It's great for a nice dinner or if you have a few friends and just want some antipasti with a few glasses of wine. They have an amazing selection of wines along with some really good antipasti and cheeses as well. The staff are lovely and the location is right in the Italian quarter just two minutes from the Jervis LUAS stop. read more

Seriously. Amazeballs of Italian goodness am I in love. We had the Medeterraneo mix board for sharing, and it was a true delight. The cheese was creamy, and had a wonderful, subtle flavor while the parma ham was melt-in-your-mouth good. For the main, I had Tonnarelli Alla Norcina with sausage and black truffle in a light creamy sauce and it was so nice and the black truffle was not too overpowering like you usually get. Lastly, for dessert, my table shared the Tiramisu, and it was the perfect ending to a perfect meal. The board and dessert were the best, but if I had just the pasta, I would be happy, too. Very good service. Very cute place. Loved the experience all around! read more

Enoteca Delle Langhe - Fantastic! Love the antipasti platter. Many things I have not even tried before. Limited hot dishes but pasta was delicious. - Italian Near Me - Dublin, D

This place was not to my liking. We were kept waiting and the food lacked any resemblance to anything authentic. It was clear that they were busy and were very poor at managing the orders. The aubergines were overcooked and the spinach ravioli seemed store bought. Didn't enjoy it at all. P.S: It's here where I saw the funniest thing ever. A lady actually connected her smartphone to a mouse (via USB plug) and started clicking/browsing her phone with the mouse. Incredibile read more

A traditional italian wine bar and restaurant in the hearth of Dublin. Great choice of wines and the aperitivo time is amazing with a fixed price to get one drink and a few italian bites. The ambient is great, especially inside! read more

I Was here on a Thursday evening , was a bit late for the aperitif (which is that time when you can order a glass of wine and they serve you some small canapes or small tapas). But we ordered two glasses of wine and a board of charcuterie with cheeses. I was very surprised by the generosity of the board. it had cheeses, sundried tomatoes, honey, different sorts of meats, cheeses, big tasty olives, and warm bread. If i had to recommend a place for a nice glass of wine and enjoy some tasty bites i would say this place. I would love to be back to taste something different in the menu. read more

I've spent many a happy summer's evening sitting outside here sipping Italian white wine and eating a delectable selection of bread, cheeses and meats. Of course you have to have the weather for that! Still, you can always sit inside if that's not the case and I've done that too. I took my cousin from the UK in there one evening and she couldn't get over how reasonable the platter of food was. She said that in London you would pay more for much less. I go back here over and over again and I'm never tired of it. Great food, drink, service and atmosphere. You just can't go wrong. read more

When you walk through the lane of the Italian quarter you will forget for a moment that you are in Dublin, being surrounded with Different Italian restaurants. This time My friend and I decided to to have our Saturday night dinner there and to sum my opinion in one word I would say "Authentic". The service was very good although the place seemed to be packed at the time. The menu has different choices and i went for vegetarian side like always, the antipasti looks good and they also do cheese board. The most thing I like about Italians is that they are very considerate and passionate ,especially, when it comes to their food, my friend did not finish her dish because she was full after the antipasti, the Garson noticed her full plate, he approached us immediately and asked if the food was not good enough or if she wants something else instead . Overall, the food is good if you are looking for traditional Italian meal, nothing exceptional or new. However, I haven't tried their Dolce and I might give it a try next time. read more

Enoteca Delle Langhe - delicious salad with apple and salmon - Italian Near Me - Dublin, D

Enoteca delle Langhe is a place I've often walked past (as it's slap bang in the middle of the Italian Quarter, i.e. facing 'The Last Supper' wall)... Having recently been tipped off on the excellent cheese and cold meats platter, I decided it was time to try for myself. My friend and I shared the large mixed selection with a bottle of Barolo. A wooden board arrived beautifully presented with different cheeses and cold cuts. It's good value for money if you're not in the market for anything heavier. Everything we tried was delicious. I especially loved pairing the cheese with the Piedmont honey. The wine was superb but at €28, it cost more than the food! Service was on the slow side but I didn't mind, as I was busy having the chats. Twice, we were asked by somebody for "spare change"...unfortunately there's not a lot you can do about this if you're seated outdoors in the city centre. That aside, I enjoyed the authentic food and wine, and would definitely come back! read more

They were busy. Chefs were overwhelmed, and it's an open kitchen, so it was obvious. Food was leaving the kitchen and walking accross the alley to assumed sister restaurant. Server took my order, kindly recommended that I ordered too much food, and I still acknowledged my order since I'm on holiday by myself and want to try multiple dishes. First dish came: fried brie. Barely fried, ice cold in the center. Next two dishes came after, and were great. I had tried the ends of the cheese and pushed 80+% aside because it was not cooked correctly. When I told the server that the cheese had been undercooked, she tried to tell me that I let it sit for awhile, which was false, and she wouldn't have known because she didn't come by for 20 minutes after it was served. The cheese still found its way on the bill. This is unacceptable. I can look past the fact that my water was cleared while my wine was being served, and not replaced when 2 servers are polishing glassware right in front of me, because I did dine by myself and use the restroom between the slowly served courses. The fact that I actually have to negotiate for a dish that was improperly prepared, not followed up on, and than charged to me, is ridiculous. Too bad, the pasta was awesome. read more

Great food... really great food! The prices are reasonable and the ambiance is ideal for a lunch or intimate dinner. One of the top three Italian meals we have ever had, including in Italy! read more

The food was ok but the overall experience was pretty bad. The waiter brought the wrong order, there was a lot of smoke inside from the kitchen and the bathroom had no toilet paper. read more

Fantastic Italian wine bar/restaurant located in the "Italian Quarter" on the northside, just at the Millennium Bridge. This place serves heavenly wine, some really nice dishes (my personal favourite is the mozzarella salad that comes with a big ball of mozzarella in the middle) and they even have a few outdoor tables (beware of the beggars). Prices are pretty average. It's a lovely spot for a leisurely Saturday afternoon. read more

Having recrntly moved to Dublin, I haven't tried many restaurants but was pleasantly surprised! We had been shopping in Jervis and thought it would be nice to chill out, eat some pasta and have a glass of wine. We started with some olives and a glass of red wine! As can be expected from a wine bar, there was a great selection of wines. Although there wasn't a huge selection of pastas the days specials were very tasty. There was however a very tempting selection of meat and cheese platters but on the night on question we both craved pasta! Overall I really enjoyed the meal and next time I am there I want to try the platters! They look amazing! read more

Excellent food. But after spending a week enjoying the pleasant personalities of the Irish people, we finally tried an Italian restaurant only to find the Italian staff to be father rude.

What a great find! Walked in looking for a glass of wine and spent a happy couple of hours over a wine and a antipasto platter. It was delicious. Just what we needed after a hard day stimulating the Irish economy. The platter was superb with a section of cold meat, cheese and salad. The side of bread came in a paper bag which was a nice touch as it clearly kept the bread fresh. The wine bar has an extensive section of wine and offers s 20% discount off a bottle if you buy one to go after your meal. This is a place I would certainly go back to and I am looking forward to sampling one of their mains when we do. Thanks for a great evening on Valentine's Day 2015! read more
